Great
Life
Coaching - What people say...
|
|
Life coaching is effective for
well-functioning, outwardly successful (perhaps inwardly empty) men and women,
partnered or single, aged 20 - 77 who are ready and willing to change their
lives. Sometimes
the effect of our work is simple and other times it is profound. Every
relationship is unique both in scope, complexity and depth. The following
quotes are a small selection of references and feedback from various great life
coach clients...
What clients have said
about our work together

"Lee’s senior management experience linked to his high EQ and aspiration for people to maximize their potential in the most complete sense of the word is a formidable combination. His coaching operated within a clear framework, but allowed numerous avenues to be explored, whilst always driving towards a concrete outcome. The journey was actually shorter than I thought it would be and the destination very clear and exciting – frankly, I couldn’t have asked for more and I very much look forward to the future that Lee has helped me to map out for myself."

"When I first got in touch with you I was just looking for some help in getting promoted and making the best of a career I wasn't really happy with. You've helped me understand what it is I truly value in life, to rediscover my creativity and to start to believe that, instead of making the best of a joyless career, I can change direction and realise my dreams. It's been brilliant working with you".

"Lee’s style and method is highly effective and motivating. He took an holistic view of where I was and where I wanted to be in my work. By careful questioning and an approach that gradually and clearly delivers an understanding and awareness of values and aspirations Lee helped me to focus on what needs to be done for the next stage of my career. I would highly recommend Lee for his skills and talent as a life coach.”

"When I first met Lee I
felt numb as a person, lacking direction, meaning and purpose in life. During
our consultations, Lee has been tremendously helpful in helping me identify and
sieve out the counterproductive patterns, which inhibited my personal and
spiritual growth. I must admit I was not sure about life coaching as it sounded
a bit "out there" BUT after clicking submit on the enquiry form I have
never ever looked back. I have undergone a powerful transformation under Lee's
guidance and have learnt so much about myself. The result being an empowered
individual who is now in control of his destiny!" Film and

"I have handed in my notice.
Had to get pro-active in my life. Our chat helped, I value your time and
your words of "10,000 people make their living through writing, why can't
you ?" has given me the impetus to have a go" Writer, Westminster
|
|
| |
|
|

"I first started working with
Lee to address a general lack of purpose and direction in my life, particularly
focussing on my career and relationship. Our work together has given me a fresh
perspective and helped to kick-start some long overdue changes as well as
learning a great deal about myself and my ability to achieve the things that I
want out of life. This work has been the first step in an already exciting
journey of self development." Investment
Banker, Clapham

"Lee took my personal 'deck of cards' and laid them out with me in a logical order. This is something I probably could have done by myself but just never had the time, focus, skill or structures to get started.
Once I was able to step back and see the patterns emerge a powerful sense of calm and order kicked in. This has personally been very beneficial to me. I needed to have a handle on my true internal self before I could reallocate that previously confused and wasted energy towards making long overdue positive improvements.
Lee is now a valued member of my team and I recommend his approach highly."

"Several months have passed
since we finished our work together. Of course I was able to see its immediate
usefulness and impact while we were doing it, I however feel it’s only now that I can fully appreciate and reflect
on
the effects it had on me and consequently on my life. It’s only now I can see
the link between the exercises we did and the changes in my behaviour. It’s
only now I see how all these exercises fit together and what they were aiming at
building.
Naturally I want to thank
you again, but as we both know your role is the one of a facilitator and thank
you are not the right words. I would like to congratulate you on the great work
you have done in creating these exercises. Being so well thought over, they
made change easy and effective - I trust your great ability to listen and help
with them makes also a big difference.
Moreover, the result of this
work is more than the sum of its parts; the strength it has given me continues
to grow: by allowing me to increase my awareness and my sense of responsibility,
you have given me power and control on my life and myself. Needless to say, my
joy and happiness are much greater today than when I met you about a year ago;
they were always there as we both know, but you helped me find them.
That sparkle and joy for life hasn’t left me since."

"I would like to thank you
for our work together as it really has helped me put things into perspective -
despite the "blip" in the middle when I thought I was going nowhere.
I feel positive about my "new life".
It helped me focus on what
key issues are really important to me - some which I had not given enough
thought to in the past. This enabled me to consider what changes I could
make which would really make a difference to my outlook on life rather than
continue to 'plod along' as I had been doing in the past." Accountant,

"I had a feeling of complete
emptiness for about six months, and decided to go on a life coaching process to
restore the balance, find out who I am and what I really want to get out of my
life. I felt the need to isolate and keep the positive legacy of my personal
history, and to identify and get rid of what wasn’t truly me. I believe we
always meet the right people if we leave our rational brain behind and simply
listen to our intuition – proof is I found a great coach who was the right
person for the job, and led me both to start yoga and to read The Power of Now,
which were big revelations.
As at now, about six months after engaging in this coaching process, I feel
good, and that I have made amazing progress in discovering/digging out who I am.
The validation I get out of work is being replaced by the joy of honouring my
values – I get more and more fulfilled by the joy of being a loving and
caring, person." VP Marketing and Development, North London

have helped me to break through some of the blockages in my life and for the
sound advice you have provided through a challenging yet exciting period. I feel
like I have taken the first steps on an exciting journey and that I am able to
take a different perspective on life. I am sure I will look to you for
assistance in future as and when it is required and will also have no hesitation
in recommending you to others as a Life Coach. I also hope to see you at the
opening of my bar next year! " Investment Banker, City

"I have found
our time together enormously valuable in bringing into focus what it is that
I want to do with my life, what really matters and what does not. Far
from being airy-fairy psychobabble, your approach is a really sound and
practical way of systematically identifying what are one's core values, and
then evaluating the extent to which they are being met, and identifying how
to ensure they are met in those areas where they are not.
The thing
I have found most empowering is the wisdom you have imparted, which I know
intuitively to be true, in relation to a number of matters. . I
always come away from our sessions feeling uplifted and empowered.
The most
valuable thing you have given me is perspective - a realisation that
wellbeing comprises simultaneously satisfying a number of needs, and there
is really no point over-focussing. Trite of course, and I knew
that already, but you have really deepened my understanding of this truth.
But the
best thing of all: the belief that anything is possible. We are
limited only by our own minds. Fantastic!" Senior Lawfirm Partner,
Westminster

"Whilst appearing successful in conventional career
terms, I was stressed, suffered from ill-health, had sleepless nights and
felt guilty about not making time for the people I loved ... but I couldn’t
see a way out. I went down many wrong roads in trying to find solutions to
my unbalanced lifestyle. Finally, I realised I was treating the symptoms,
not the problem. So I took the step of finding a life coach.
My coach helped me identify what I valued most in life and what I really
enjoyed doing. Having a totally independent person to
listen to me and to challenge my own self limiting beliefs opened my mind to
a whole new set of ideas. Just as importantly, my coach enabled me to
realise that I was in control and able to choose the life that was right for
me." Insurance Sector COO, Lake District

"When I first started working with Lee I
had completely lost my way in life, I felt as if I had nothing to offer. Lee
has shown me what I have to offer the world and once again to start feeling
good about who I am. The most powerful thing Lee has given me is the ability
to say who I am and what I stand for, a great feeling!" Telco Chief

"I knew immediately that I had found
someone with a depth of wisdom, warmth and compassion who would not hesitate
to put the challenging questions but who would also be there to encourage
and support me. ... I was not mistaken in my judgement; working with Lee has
enabled me to re-discover the true essence of my being which I had fought
hard to ignore and in acknowledging that, enabled me to move forward with
energy and optimism. I am now able to see the path ahead with much greater
clarity and I KNOW it's the right one!" Private School Head Teacher,
Docklands

"We were only a few minutes into the first session
before I felt certain that Lee's way of working was exactly what I needed.
His style is friendly, supportive and understanding, but very focused on
guiding the session in a positive direction at all times. I felt that the
work was very carefully crafted for my needs. Throughout, I never
felt that I was being pushed in any direction I didn't want to go. I
found the experience challenging in many ways, exploring truths about myself
that I had never thought about before." Safety Engineer,

"I think the most important thing to come
out of our sessions is that I now feel valid; when I feel or think something
I no longer question it, but accept it as being the truth of who I am. I've
started to live my life in accordance with my own personal truth and as
a result I'm happier and a lot less stressed.
Thanks for all your help: it really was worth
every penny. I feel like I've done a great emotional audit. I'm so more
assertive, less inclined to take crap from people, and I know where I stand
on things." Legal

'I
contacted Lee when I realised the changes I needed in my life and
myself were too daunting to manage on my own. Lee helped me through a
journey of self discovery. I felt empowered all the way in the knowledge
that Lee wasn't judging me or finding answers for me. I regained a
confidence and eagerness I hadn't felt in years.
I have
come a long way in the last 6 months and my life has changed tremendously,
for the better, because I have changed. I have resurfaced 'the real me' that
had been hidden for years and am facing the new year full of ambition and
determination." Management Consultant, St. Albans

Lee has
given me the confidence to do things I have only ever talked about doing.
Working with Lee is more like having a really close friend you can talk to and helps you through things, without any judgement, this is very
liberating. Lee has given me a strong belief in myself and what I can do.
This has changed my attitude to the way I have approached my job and through some very difficult times.
Recently I have
had a very negative attitude, which is now very much a positive one" Hair

"I have worked with Lee for a few months
and have generally become more focussed and am imbued with a greater

|
|

"Lee
made me realise that this wasn’t as simple as finding a new career or
getting a job, I needed a whole new view of the world. I was totally without
direction or focus, hitting the bottle badly and generally in ‘headless
chicken’ mode. Lee’s approach is nurturing and non-judgemental, drawing
out the answers I knew I had but couldn’t seem to release. Going right
back to the fundamentals and building upwards with each session it made
complete sense." Physiotherapy Manager, London

"Although I only worked with Lee for a few

"I had reached a point where life had
become a series of repetitions. Past behaviours dictated that I would fail,
I would be unhappy and as a result would continue to stand still, going no
where. My work with Lee has shown me very clearly that I am in control of my
future, and more importantly, able to be effective in managing my thoughts,
fears and feelings in a way that allows me to be confident in who I am, what
I aim to be in the future and sure that I will get there. Its like being
born. Its painful, emotional, you rebel against it, but there's a fantastic
light at the end that makes it all worth while. I'm not there yet, but
what's changed is, I know I'm on my way." Conductor, Bedfordshire

"Lee is a professional, intelligent coach
who provides an excellent service. His key skills are his ability to
listen intently, focus on the areas of greatest need and provide insights in
a manner that is friendly and easy-going. Honesty is key to his work

His willingness to travel to a location near you is a great positive. I

improvement in their lives." IT Consultant, EC1

and eventually to embrace a career change as a real option and not just
something to dream about" Loans Officer, EC1

"When I first met Lee, I felt lost and a little bit angry with the world. I remember he told me we are now living a great moment, full of opportunities. When he told me this, I thought "Yeah right", but he was so positive that after a few sessions with him, I started feeling better and better. Thanks to our sessions together, I now feel stronger to face the world and I can look at things in a different light"
Account Manager, Ealing

|

|
|

"The style of discussion was very open and very good at drawing out of you insight that you had a feeling was there but had lost under layers of issues and the daily stresses of life.
... Lee helped me to understand what I am actually about beneath the veneer of modern day living and (the me bit) then to identify what it is I would most like to do with my life with a strong focus on the career element. The result weren’t what I expected which is why I think the process is so valuable – sometimes you need to work out what is the best course of action despite yourself."

"Every meeting helps bring me to a higher state of self-awareness, helping me make decisions in my life and knowing they are the right ones. Every session is inspiring. Lee's style is very intuitive; I am always guided, never pushed, into figuring out and realising what's true for myself. After a few months of working with Lee, I see myself with much greater clarity than I ever have done. It's a wonderful feeling."
Trader, Fulham

"The main thing I gained from our work together was the courage and confidence to start to actually acknowledge what it is that I want - not what I think other people want, or what I think I ought to want, or what will sound impressive to other people, but what I really genuinely want. This might sound really basic, but in fact it has really opened my eyes and is already helping me to make better decisions, safe in the knowledge that they are "ok"! It feels amazing and powerful. Thank you!
